Kanye West Assault Video: You're Tryin' to Get Me In Trouble (See!)

Rapper Pursued Paparazzo, Instigated Fight

Kanye West seconds before he ‘steps off’ with a photographer. He could be facing serious assault charges.

Kayne West confronted a photographer at Los Angeles airport, even though the paparazzo was trying to be conciliatory and told the rapper he didn’t want to fight. But he kept talking and that was enough for Kanye to start swinging.

The video was shot by the paparazzo who was attacked. It ends in a blur as West lunges, and the photographer loses control of his equipment, according to the 50-second clip, posted by TMZ.

Other cameramen who were there kept silent, the video showed. The scene begins with West emerging from the Tom Bradley International Terminal. He was just returning from a flight overseas.

Everything proceeds calmly as West heads to his car accompanied by a bodyguard.

Paparazzi can be belligerent and ask insulting questions, but this quy was nothing but polite. He just talked… and, yep, looks like he’ll definitely get a payday. Kanye on the other hand, could be looking at some jail time. The video could bump the charge to felony assault.

Footnote: They way Kanye talked, apparently $250,000 is the going rate for paparazzi beat downs.

Finally, someone who reports the facts…Kanye looks to be the aggressor as he is moving toward the guy. Kanye needs to invest in a good set of earphones and just get in his car, if he doesn’t want questions.
